[0034] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0035] As Figure 1 shown, the chip testing device 10 includes a test board 110, a template 120 and a driving device. Among them, the lower surface of the test board 110 has a plurality of probes 111, the template 120 has a plurality of chip slots 121, a plurality of chips 210 to be tested are respectively placed in the plurality of chip slots 121 of the template 120, and a plurality of solder balls are provided on the surface of each chip 210 to be tested. The driving device of the chip testing device 10 is used to make the solder balls 211 of the chip 210 to be tested contact the probes 111 on the test board 110, so as to realize the electrical connection between the chip 210 to be tested and the test board 110 and perform electrical tests. However, during the testing process, both the probes 111 and the solder balls 211 will generate heat energy. When the testing is completed, the solder balls 211 will stick to the probes 111.

[0036] As Figure 2 、3 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of a chip testing device provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This chip testing device can be used to test multiple chips with BGA packages. The chip testing device of this embodiment includes a first movable plate 31, a template 32, a test circuit board 34, a first driving component (not shown in the figure), and a plurality of ejector pins 351.

[0037] The above-mentioned first movable plate 31 is in a flat plate shape, which is horizontally arranged and serves as a placement platform for the template 32 and the chips 210 to be tested. The template 32 is arranged on the upper surface of the first movable plate 31 and moves vertically together with the first movable plate 31. The upper surface of the template 32 includes a plurality of test positions for placing the chips 210 to be tested respectively. Specifically, these test positions can be distributed in a dot matrix on the upper surface of the template 32.

[0038] Each chip 210 to be tested is a chip with BGA package. The pins of the chip 210 to be tested are composed of solder balls 211, and all the solder balls 211 of the chip 210 to be tested are arranged on the same surface. The chip 210 to be tested is placed on the test position of the template 32 with the surface where the solder balls 211 are located facing upward (i.e., away from the template 32). Moreover, the surface of the chip 210 to be tested with solder balls 211 needs to have at least one reserved area 212 without solder balls 211.

[0039] The main part of the test circuit board 34 is composed of a printed circuit board (PCB). The test circuit board 34 can include a controller for executing a test program, etc., or be connected to a host computer with a test program. The test circuit board 34 is fixed above the first movable plate 31 (i.e., above the template 32) in a manner parallel to the first movable plate 31. And the surface of the test circuit board 34 facing the first movable plate 31 has a plurality of groups of probes 341. The position and quantity of each group of probes 341 respectively correspond to the solder balls 211 of each chip 210 to be tested on the template 32. The probes 241 are made of conductive materials. By contacting the solder balls 211 of the chip 210 to be tested through the probes 341, the test circuit board 34 can be communicatively connected to the chip 210 to be tested, so as to send instructions to the chip 210 to be tested or obtain feedback signals from the chip 210 to be tested. The specific structure of the above-mentioned test circuit board 34, the structure and distribution of the probes 341, etc. can all adopt the conventional structures in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0040] For example, as Figure 4As shown, when the template 32 includes ten test positions, ten chips 210 to be tested are respectively placed on the ten test positions. Correspondingly, there are ten groups of probes 341 on the test circuit board 34. The number of probes included in each group of probes 341 is equal to the number of solder balls 211 on the chip 210 to be tested at the corresponding test position. In particular, the above-mentioned probes are perpendicular to the test circuit board 34, and the first through holes are provided in the area of the test circuit board 34 corresponding to the reserved area 212 on the chip 210 to be tested.

[0041] The first driving component is drivingly connected to the first movable plate 31 and is used to drive the first movable plate 31 to move vertically, that is, the first movable plate 31 can move vertically under the drive of the first driving component. Correspondingly, the template 32 on the first movable plate 31 and the chips 210 to be tested on the template 32 also move vertically with the first movable plate 31 and move between the loading position and the testing position. Among them, at the testing position, the solder balls 211 of the chips 210 to be tested are respectively in contact with the probes 341 on the test circuit board 34, so that the test circuit board 34 is electrically connected to the chips 210 to be tested, and the test circuit board 34 can send test signals to the chips 210 to be tested and receive feedback signals from the chips to be tested, etc.; at the loading position, the solder balls 211 of the chips 210 to be tested are separated from the probes 341 on the test circuit board 34, so that the template 32 can be removed from the first movable plate 31 or the chips 210 to be tested can be removed from the template 32. Specifically, the travel size between the loading position and the testing position can be determined according to the thickness of the template 32, the thickness of the chips 210 to be tested, the length of the probes 341, etc., and will not be elaborated here. The above-mentioned first driving component can specifically adopt methods such as chain drive, motor drive, piston cylinder drive, etc. to drive the first movable plate 31 to move vertically, and is not limited here.

[0042] On the main body part of the above-mentioned test circuit board 34, several first through holes (not shown in the figure) are provided corresponding to the gaps of each group of probes 341, and each first through hole penetrates the upper surface and the lower surface of the main body part of the test circuit board 34. Correspondingly, several thimble 351 are vertically arranged above the first movable plate 31 and avoid the solder balls 211 of the chips 210 to be tested, that is, the vertical projection of the thimble 351 on the surface of the chips 210 to be tested avoids the solder balls 211 and corresponds to the reserved area 212. And there is at least one thimble 351 above the reserved area 212 of each chip 210 to be tested.

[0043] When the first driving component drives the first movable plate 31 to move downward, so that the chip 210 to be tested moves from the test position to the loading position, the ejector pin 351 passes through the first through hole on the test circuit board 34 and pushes the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested to separate from the probe 341. In particular, the moment when the ejector pin 351 pushes the chip to be tested to separate from the probe 341 can occur at any moment when the chip 210 to be tested moves from the test position to the loading position, rather than being limited to a specific moment. In the above way, even if the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested adheres to the probe 341 after the test is completed, the chip 210 to be tested can also be separated from the probe 341 under the push of the ejector pin 351, avoiding manually removing the adhered chip from the probe and improving the overall efficiency of chip testing.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, the above chip testing device further includes a second movable plate 35 and a plurality of linkage rods 36 in addition to the first movable plate 31, the template 32, the test circuit board 34, the first driving component and a plurality of ejector pins 351, wherein the ejector pin 351 is vertically connected to the lower surface of the second movable plate 35. The second movable plate 35 is disposed above the test circuit board 34 and is parallel to the first movable plate 31, that is, the first movable plate 31, the test circuit board 34, and the second movable plate 35 are parallel, and the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 are respectively connected to the linkage rod 36.

[0045] The second movable plate 35 constitutes a carrier for the ejector pins 351. By the second movable plate 35, all the ejector pins 351 can be moved up and down simultaneously. At the same time, since the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 are connected by the linkage rod 36, the ejector pins 351 are relatively fixed to the respective chips 210 to be tested on the template 32, so as to facilitate the ejector pins 351 to push the respective chips 210 to be tested to separate from the probes 341. Of course, in actual applications, the ejector pins 351 can also be independent of each other, but the overall control structure will be relatively complex.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, each test position on the template 32 is formed by a groove, and the shape and size of the groove are respectively adapted to the shape and size of the respective chips 210 to be tested, so as to ensure that when the chip 210 to be tested moves from the loading position to the test position, the probe 341 on the test circuit board 34 can contact the corresponding solder ball 211, avoiding misconnection.

[0047] Accordingly, the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 are respectively fixedly connected to the linkage rod 36. For example, both ends of each linkage rod 36 are respectively perpendicularly connected to the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35. When the first driving assembly drives the first movable plate 31 to move upward or downward, the second movable plate 35 moves upward or downward synchronously driven by the linkage rod 36. To ensure the stable connection between the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35, the chip testing device may include four linkage rods 36.

[0048] Moreover, when the first driving assembly drives the first movable plate 31 to move upward so that the chip 210 to be tested on the template 32 is in the test position, the free end of the thimble 351 is separated from the surface of the chip 210 to be tested, as Figure 3 shown; when the first driving assembly drives the first movable plate 31 to move downward so that the chip 210 to be tested on the template 32 is in the loading position, the free end of the thimble 351 protrudes below the free end of the probe 341, as Figure 2 shown.

[0049] After the chip 210 to be tested is tested, the first driving assembly drives the first movable plate 31 to move downward, and the template 32 and the second movable plate 35 follow the first movable plate 31 to move downward synchronously. If the probe 341 is not adhered to the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested, the chip 210 to be tested will move downward following the template 32; if the probe 341 is adhered to the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested, the chip 210 to be tested will remain in its original position. Instead, the thimble 351 moving downward following the second movable plate 35 will move downward and insert into the first through hole on the test circuit board 34. And as the first movable plate 31 continues to move downward, the free end of the thimble 351 will contact the reserved area 212 on the surface of the chip 210 to be tested. Since the solder ball 211 on the surface of the chip 210 to be tested has not fully hardened just after the test, the chip 210 to be tested will be separated from the probe 341 under the push of the thimble 351, thus avoiding manually removing the chip 210 to be tested from the probe 341.

[0050] Specifically, to prevent the free end of the ejector pin 351 from contacting the surface of the chip 210 to be tested and causing the chip 210 to be damaged due to dropping onto the template 32 under the push of the ejector pin 351 after the contact, the distance between the first movable plate 31, the test circuit board 34 and the second movable plate 35, and the lengths of the ejector pin 351 and the probe 341 should meet the following conditions: when the chip 210 to be tested on the template 32 is in the loading position, the distance between the free end of the ejector pin 351 and the surface of the chip 210 to be tested is less than the depth of the groove. In this way, when the solder balls 211 of the chip 210 to be tested adhere to the probes 341, during the downward movement of the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 driven by the first driving component, when the free end of the ejector pin 351 contacts the surface of the chip 210 to be tested, the bottom of the chip 210 to be tested still does not exceed the upper surface of the template 32. Thus, even if the chip 210 to be tested is separated from the probe 341 under the push of the ejector pin 351, the chip 210 to be tested will move downward along the groove wall, and due to the frictional force between its outer edge and the groove wall, the chip 210 to be tested will not fall, avoiding its collision damage.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present invention, one of the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 is movably connected to the linkage rod 36, or one of the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 and the linkage rod 36 are both movably connected to the linkage rod 36, that is, the first movable plate 31 and / or the second movable plate 35 can move up and down relative to the linkage rod 36. For example, the second movable plate 35 can be movably connected to the linkage rod 36 in the following way: a number of through holes penetrating its upper and lower surfaces are provided on the second movable plate 35, and the size of the through hole is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the linkage rod 36, and the linkage rod 36 passes through the through hole to be movably connected to the second movable plate 35.

[0052] In addition to being drivingly connected to the first movable plate 31, the first driving component is also drivingly connected to the second movable plate 35, and when the first driving component drives the first movable plate 31 to move upward, it drives the second movable plate 35 to move downward at the same time, and when it drives the first movable plate 31 to move downward, it drives the second movable plate 35 to move upward at the same time. That is, when the first driving component drives the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 to move vertically, the moving directions of the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 are opposite, so that when the first movable plate 31 is driven to run to the position where the chip 210 to be tested is in the test position, the second movable plate 35 is driven to run to the position where the free end of the ejector pin 351 abuts against the surface of the chip 210 to be tested.

[0053] Specifically, in combination with Figure 5 、 6As shown in the figure, the above-mentioned first driving component includes a lead screw 37, a first nut portion 311 located on the first movable plate 31, and a second nut portion 353 located on the second movable plate 35. The lead screw 37 includes a first thread segment 3711 and a second thread segment 3721 arranged at intervals, and the thread rotation directions of the first thread segment 3711 and the second thread segment 3721 are opposite; the first nut portion 311 and the second nut portion 353 include threaded holes with the center lines on the same straight line, and the thread of the threaded hole of the first nut portion 311 is adapted to the thread of the first thread segment 3711, and the thread of the threaded hole of the second nut portion 353 is adapted to the thread of the second thread segment 3721. The lead screw 37 is assembled to the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 in such a way that the first thread segment 3711 is threadedly connected to the first nut portion 311 and the second thread segment 3721 is threadedly connected to the second nut portion 353.

[0054] The above-mentioned lead screw 37 is vertically fixed by bearings, connecting sleeves, etc., that is, the lead screw 37 can only rotate and cannot move axially. Since the rotation directions of the first thread segment 3711 and the second thread segment 3721 are opposite, during the rotation of the lead screw 37, the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 move in opposite directions.

[0055] Particularly, the above-mentioned lead screw 37 can be formed by axially connecting a first rod portion 371 and a second rod portion 372. The first thread segment is located on the first rod portion 371, the second thread segment 3721 is located on the second rod portion 372, and the first rod portion 371 and the second rod portion 372 are axially connected together. For example, a third thread segment 3722 can be provided at the bottom of the second rod portion 372, and the diameter of the second thread segment 3722 is smaller than the diameter of the main body portion of the second rod portion 372; one end face of the first rod portion 371 has a threaded hole (for example, the threaded hole can be located at the end face where the first thread segment 3711 is located), and the diameter of the threaded hole is adapted to the diameter of the third thread segment 3722 of the second rod portion 372. When the lead screw 37 is assembled to the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35, the second rod portion 372 can be first threadedly connected to the second nut portion 353, and then the first rod portion 371 is threadedly connected to the first nut portion 311, and the first rod portion is continuously rotated so that the threaded hole of the first rod portion is threadedly connected to the third thread segment 372 of the second rod portion 372.

[0056] It can be understood that in addition to the lead screw 37, the first driving component may also include transmission parts such as a motor and gears to drive the lead screw 37 to rotate. In practical applications, the first driving component can also adopt other structures as long as it can drive the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 to move in opposite directions.

[0057] Such as Figure 7As shown in the above embodiment, each thimble 351 includes a main body portion 3511, a telescopic portion 3513, and an elastic member 3512. One end of the main body portion 3511 is vertically connected to the lower surface of the second movable plate 35. The telescopic portion 3513 is movably connected to the other end of the main body portion 3511, and both ends of the elastic member 3512 are respectively abutted against the main body portion 3511 and the telescopic portion 3513. That is, the telescopic portion 3513 can axially move relative to the main body portion 3511.

[0058] When the first movable plate 31 is driven by the first driving component to move upward until the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested contacts the free end of the probe 341, the second movable plate 35 is driven by the first driving component to move downward. The telescopic portion 3513 of the thimble 351 contacts the surface of the chip 210 to be tested and the elastic member 3512 is compressed. After the chip 210 to be tested is completed, the first driving component drives the first movable plate 31 to move downward, and at the same time drives the second movable plate 35 to move upward. At this time, the elastic member 3512 pushes the telescopic portion 3513 to axially move relative to the main body portion 3511 through its own elastic force, so that the telescopic portion 3513 pushes the chip 210 to be tested to separate from the probe 341. As the second movable plate 35 continues to move upward, the telescopic portion 3513 separates from the surface of the chip 210 to be tested and continues to retract above the free end of the probe 341 (or flush with the free end of the probe 341), so as to facilitate removing the template 32 from the first movable plate 31.

[0059] In addition, when at least one of the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 is movably connected to the linkage rod 36, the above chip testing device may further include a second driving component. The second driving component is drivingly connected to the second movable plate 35. That is, the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35 are respectively driven by different driving components. And when the first driving component drives the first movable plate 31 and the template 32 to move upward from the loading position until the probe 341 on the test circuit board 34 contacts the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested, the second movable plate 35 is driven to move downward until the thimble 351 contacts the surface of the chip 210 to be tested. And after the first driving component drives the first movable plate 31 and the template 32 to move downward a preset distance (the preset distance can be set as needed) from the test position, the second movable plate 35 is first driven to move downward to push the solder ball 211 of the chip 210 to be tested to separate from the probe 341, and then the second movable plate 35 is driven to move upward until the free end of the thimble 35 is higher than the free end of the probe 341.

[0060] As Figure 8As shown, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the surface of the above-mentioned test circuit board 34 facing away from the probe 341 has a plurality of electrical connection interfaces 342, and each electrical connection interface 342 is electrically connected to at least one group of probes 341 via a conductive line (the conductive line can be composed of copper foil on the test circuit board 34, etc.). Correspondingly, the second movable plate 35 has a plurality of second through holes 352, which penetrate the upper surface and the lower surface of the second movable plate 35, and the electrical connection interfaces 342 are connected to the host computer through cables passing through the second through holes 352, or the tops of the electrical connection interfaces 342 protrude through the second through holes 352 to the upper surface of the second movable plate 35 or are flush with the upper surface of the second movable plate 35, so as to facilitate the connection between the electrical connection interfaces 342 and the host computer.

[0061] To ensure that the relative positions of the test circuit board 34 are maintained during the movement of the first movable plate 31 and the second movable plate 35, the above-mentioned chip testing device further includes a fixing frame, which is located outside the orthographic projection area of the first movable plate 31. The test circuit board 34 is fixed to the fixing frame and extends above the orthographic projection area of the first movable plate 31. In this way, non-contact fixation between the test circuit board 34 and the first movable plate 31 can be achieved.

[0062] Particularly, the test circuit board 34 can also be movably connected to the linkage rod 36. For example, a third through hole is provided on the test circuit board 34, the diameter of the third through hole is adapted to the diameter of the linkage rod 36, and the linkage rod 36 passes through the third through hole. Through the linkage rod 36, the horizontal positions of the first movable plate 31, the second movable plate 35 and the test circuit board 34 can be kept relatively unchanged, so as to ensure that after the first movable plate 31 moves upward, the solder balls 211 of the chip 210 to be tested can contact the corresponding probes 241, and at the same time ensure that after the second movable plate 35 moves downward, the free end of the ejector pin 351 can abut against the reserved area 212 of the chip 210 to be tested.

[0063] In addition, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the upper surface of the first movable plate 31 has a plurality of positioning members. Correspondingly, the template 32 has a plurality of positioning portions, and the template 32 is arranged at a predetermined position of the first movable plate 31 by means of the cooperation between the positioning portions and the positioning members. Through this structure, it can be ensured that after the first movable plate 31 moves upward, the solder balls 211 of the chip 210 to be tested can contact the corresponding probes 241.

[0064] Specifically, the positioning members can be composed of a plurality of bumps on the upper surface of the first movable plate 31, and the positioning portions can be composed of the side surfaces of the template 32.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a buffer spring may be sleeved on the linkage rod 36, and two ends of the buffer spring respectively abut against the first movable plate 31 and the test circuit board 34. Through the buffer spring, the resistance of the first movable plate 31 moving upward can be increased, so as to avoid the impact on the probe 341 caused by the too-fast rising of the chip 210 to be tested and prevent the probe 341 from being knocked crooked.

[0066] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
